Bob, try again. Triumph Motorcycles and Triumph Cars have nothing to do
with each other. The Triumph Motor Company sold of their motorcycle branch
in the 30s? to fund new developments. Since then they ahve been two
completely separate entities, having nothing to do with the other. This
particular TM is for the Cars. The motorcycle company has NO affiliation
with BMW.

Patrick,
Triumph is indeed currently in use. The Triumph Motorcycle Company was
resurrected way back in 1990 and makes some wonderful bikes. Check out
